Massive eruptions of Hawaii’s Kilauea volcano and Guatemala’s Fuego volcano have captivated the entire world in recent days, and now it looks like even more volcanoes are starting to wake up. In fact, yellow alerts were just issued for Mexico’s Mt. Popocatepetl and Alaska’s Great Sitkin volcano. Mt. Popocatepetl and Great Sitkin both sit along the “Ring of Fire” that roughly encircles the perimeter of

A Yellow Alert Has Just Been Issued For 2 Major Volcanoes In North America

Well, we will have to keep our eyes open on these two. Oh but wait the chit happens all the time.
Never pay attention to the possibilities of warnings and possible eruptions, I mean nothing ever happens like that in America.

Meanwhile, in Guatemala two have popped off and were fairly good sizes.

Always thought that would be a cool name for a punk band...”Plate Tectonics.”

I knew of a band named " Pangea" lol
 
Update on Kilauea;

Another explosive eruption occurred this morning...

"The USGS also stated that this event's plume was similar to past events that have sent ash clouds up to 10,000 feet in the air and drifted southwest, with possible ash fall at downwind locations.

According to the county of Hawaii civil defense agency, severe conditions may exist such as inability to breathe and choking. The agency said this is a serious situation that affects the entire exposed population.

“I’m talking about 600 families. Don’t forget the farmers, don’t forget the ranchers, don’t forget all the employees for them,” Hawaii County Mayor Harry Kim said. Mayor Kim’s home was also destroyed by the volcano.

At least 700 homes have been destroyed by lava since he eruptions began, Kim told Hawaii News Now.

The lava that continues to spew from Kīlauea has reached a new high temperature of 2,140 degrees Fahrenheit.

"This is the hottest lava we've seen during this eruption," Wendy Stovall, a scientist with USGS, on Hawaii News Now said.

"Lava can't get hotter than where we are," Stovall said."

The Lava being ejected is now capable of melting rock it comes in contact with.. No end in sight for this eruption.

Kīlauea’s lava melts 700 Hawaiian homes as violent eruptions spew ash, earthquakes strike
 
June 12, 11:00 h (June 12, 16:00 GMT)
In the last 24 hours, through the monitoring systems at Popocatépetl volcano, were registered 34 exhalations with emissions of steam and gas (image 1) . Also were registered 5 volcanotectonic events yesterday at 12:44, 17:32, 18:25, 18:26 y 23:10 h, with magnitude 2.9, 2.6, 2.0, 1.6 y 2.5 respectively.

At night was possible to observed incandescence that increase with some exhalations (image 2).

At the time of this report the emission are dispersed to the southeast direction (image 3).

CENAPRED emphasizes that people SHOULD NOT go near the volcano, especially near the crater, due to the hazard caused by ballistic fragments (image 4) and in case of heavy rains leave the bottoms of ravines by the danger of landslides and debris flows.

The Volcanic Traffic Light Yellow Phase 2.

The scenarios foreseen for this phase are:

1. Explosive activity of low to intermediate level.

2. Ash fall in nearby towns.

3. Possibility of short range pyroclastic flows and mudflows .

Special emphasis is placed on the following recommendations:

1. Continue the safety radius of 12 km, so staying in that area is not allowed.

2. Keep the controlled traffic between Santiago Xalitzintla and San Pedro Nexapa through Paso de Cortés.

3. Civil Protection authorities, keep your preventive procedures, in accordance with their operational plans.

4. People, be alert to the official information disseminated.

In case of ashfall, address the following recommendations:

• Cover nose and mouth with a wet handkerchief or face mask.

• Clean eyes and throat with pure water.

• Avoid contact lenses to reduce eye irritation.

• Close windows or cover them up, and stay indoors as much as possible.

Popocatepetl Volcano monitoring is performed continuously 24 hours a day. Any change in activity will be reported in due course.


Appears that this volcano is now on eruption watch.. Active venting (out gassing) is occurring.. Capable of a VEI-6/7 eruption

Another 2 volcanoes in the Alaska chain are also out gassing. Now we have a total of three restless volcanoes..

CLEVELAND VOLCANO (VNUM #311240)
52°49'20" N 169°56'42" W, Summit Elevation 5676 ft (1730 m)
Current Volcano Alert Level: ADVISORY
Current Aviation Color Code: YELLOW

Low-level unrest continues at Cleveland volcano. Elevated surface temperatures and steam emissions were observed in several satellite images over the past 24 hours. No unusual activity was observed in seismic or pressure sensor data.

Cleveland volcano is monitored by only two seismic stations, which restricts AVO's ability to detect precursory unrest that may lead to an explosive eruption. Rapid detection of an ash-producing eruption may be possible using a combination of seismic, infrasound, lightning, and satellite data.

GREAT SITKIN VOLCANO (VNUM #311120)
52°4'35" N 176°6'39" W, Summit Elevation 5709 ft (1740 m)
Current Volcano Alert Level: ADVISORY
Current Aviation Color Code: YELLOW

Seismic activity over the past 24 hours has continued to decline after the steam explosion on Sunday. No activity was observed in cloudy satellite views over the past 24 hours.

These Volcanoes Will Pump More Toxic Gunk Into The Atmosphere
Than Man Has Since The Dawn Of Time
We'll All Die Of Global Warming For Sure Now

No Wait !!
The Ash Will Circle The Globe Airborne For Years
Blocking All Kinds Of Rays From The Sun
Causing Global Cooling !!

But:
If The Earth's Mean Temp Falls Somewhere Below 60 Degrees
Then We'll Have Years Without Summers, Crops Won't Grow (c.1816)
Possibly Billions Of People Will Suffer Famine And Death

Man, We Just Can't Win...

Mexico’s Mt. Popocatepetl
This one could cover Mexico city should the eruption be big enough and winds in the right direction... This is the one they suspect took out the Myan's.
Fuck, lets pray that doesnt happen. They will come flooding our border if something like that happened.
They can rebuild Taco Bells across the US and actually add REAL Mexican food to the menu !
Let it blow, let it blow, let it blow.
 
No doubt the result of man made global warming. .... :rolleyes:
Here is a little science for you! Go get a beach ball blow it up and put a 2.5 pound weight on it. Tell me what happens to the beach ball. Then remove that wieght and tell me what happens. This is the same effec the polar ice caps have on our planet! The question is are you bright enough to understand the implications
